My gym finally got a trap bar, holy shite I have found the holy land. If you haven't tried one, if you get joint paint from deadlifts and squats like me, give it a go. The movement is somewhere between a deadlift and a squat (a bit closer to DL), but for some magical reason it's pain free.

Thanks man, I appreciate that.

Big fan of the trap bar. I actually use it in place of squats since I injured my elbow
>>
does your gym start with an s?
>>
It's called a hex bar

Do you have a video of you deadlifting? 9/10 when people say things like this it's because they're doing something horribly wrong.

Nope, 24 hour fitness

>>42120149
Ok

>>42120174
No video, I have bad knees and a wonky hip from years of hard running. I don't blame the deadlift, but I do praise the HEX BAR for allowing me to do the motion without pain

>>42120214
gross

Ahh, totally understandable. Glad you found a lift that doesn't hurt.

Instructions for proper form using the hex/trap bar?

Whether or not it's a squat depends on your back angle. That's the beauty of it.
>>
It doesn't train grip (at all) or traps as well but it's infinitely variable if you know what you're doing
>>
>>42119843
my gym used to have one of these and it disappeared, never even got a chance to use it
>>
>>42119843
tried it once in a random gym and loved it too. Too bad i never found another one
>>
>>42120457
Thanks anon.
>>
>>42119843
if I wanted a partial movement I would clench midway through my morning shit
>>
>>42120635
full deadlift is also a partial movement, the size of the plates is a complately arbitrary height from which to base or judge rom on. you can also grip from the low handles on a hex bar to mimic le patrician rom you seek. by the way partials are the shit anyway so your whole post sucks
